Now I was very impressed with berto tonight and he is one of my favorite fighters. I believe he was my PYP, and he was the first to become world champ. He is no longer a prospect. He is the WBC welterweight champ by default. But he's still champ. Now lets talk boxing.
Right now, I dont think he beats cotto, margarito, williams or even shane mosley.
But I do feel he's ready for clottey, collazo, judah, quintana. Those would be great people for him to defend his title against until he's ready for the big guys.
However, I feel berto has THE TOOLS to defeat all the welterweights. He COULD hurt cotto. He COULD box circles around margy, and he COULD punish williams on the inside, and he COULD catch an old mosley and just out fight him. Its all in the realm of possibility.
So guys, lets talk about this guy.
